Student review [#17530] for Economics and Management
at Aston Business School

Aston has a great reputation for being a very diverse university which is one to admire. With lots of developments and opportunities to discover yourself with your peers, university life is pretty straightforward. I feel your experience at Aston will purely depend on yourself as a character, and your attitude to further education. Understand that just like any university you are in charge of your own workload, and the amount that you put in is the amount that you’ll get out of it.

Being right in the centre of Birmingham, Aston is ideal for a student looking for all the perks of living away from home at the location of a city. Everything is right at your doorstep so expect to enjoy yourself. The benefits of this university is that you will find likeminded people who also have a higher interest in some sort of success in life. To support this desire, Aston gives you access to all resources and programs to help you through your journey, you aren’t alone here, nothing is impossible here. For example, during my second year I applied for a mentor program to support my placement year, my mentor Inspired incredible confidence in me to pursue theres desires, and in addition I’ve found a professional friend for life.

The only disadvantage of Aston is that it’s a dated university. I personally feel that some of their equipment, facilities and main building doesn’t have a modern feel to it. But don’t be discouraged, Aston is a well respected university, but if you’re looking for the aesthetic facilities, Aston doesn’t offer this.
